Hi,

PC 14 is a 166 pentium with 32 meg ram and a 540 M hd. Version 
0.1.7 went on from CD with no problems.

I did notice once that my CD was not detected and I had to reboot. Is 
it possible to loop in the CD detection? Give the user a chance to 
check the CD or just to try it again.

Since then I have managed to install Xconfigurator, XFree86, XFree86-
libs, and all dependencies. I installed the SVGA server which my 
card detects for. Still no cigar.

I can run Xconfigurator but still not start the server. It does create my 
X file that links to the server. I'm gonna hammer on it some more. I'm 
keeping better details in case I get it to work.

Anyone with experience installing X please let me know. 

Thanks,

Larry
